Resolution Chanhassen is a Community for Life - Providing for Today and Planning for Tomorrow MEMORANDUM TO: City of Chanhassen, Minnesota Mr. Todd Gerhardt, City Manager Mr. Greg Sticha, Finance Director ON BEHALF OF: Carver County Community Development Agency By Kathleen Aho, Springsted Incorporated DATE: July 3, 2014 Springsted Incorporated 380 Jackson Street, Suite 300 Saint Paul, MN 55101 -2887 Tel: 651- 223 -3000 Fax: 651- 223 -3002 www.springsted.com SUBJECT: Request for general obligation pledge support Carver County Community Development Agency Housing Development Refunding Bonds, Series 2014 and the Taxable Housing Development and Refunding Bonds, Series 2014T, together the "2014 Bonds" The Carver County Community Development Agency (the "Agency ") is requesting the City's action in support of the Centennial Hill Apartments by continuing to provide its general obligation backing to bonds proposed to be issued on behalf of the project. The 2014 Bonds will refund outstanding bonds supporting the project and also provide money for proposed improvements to the project. Background In 1995, City and the Agency entered into a Joint Powers Agreement to enable the construction of the Centennial Hill Apartments which provide 65 units of housing for seniors in the City of Chanhassen. At that time, the City provided its general obligation backing to $3,000,000 of bonds, $372,310 in cash to fund a debt service reserve, an annual pledge of $32,000 in support of debt service, and pledged its portion of the PILOT payment made by the project. In addition, the Agency issued $705,000 in revenue bonds to support the project. The Agency made a similar pledge of $31,000 per year to support debt service. In 2004, the original bonds and reserve were refunded with $4,645,000 of bonds backed by the City's general obligation pledge. The issue accomplished a present value savings of $526,973 that enabled the Agency to (i) return to the City the cash the City had provided for the debt service reserve, (ii) relieve the City of its annual contribution in support of the project and (iii) relieve the City of its contribution of PILOT. The Agency annual contribution remained in place. Public Sector Advisors City of Chanhassen Carver County CDA 2014 Bond Request Page 2 As it approaches its twentieth anniversary year, the project is in need of a variety of improvements. Market conditions are also such that the 2004 bonds can be refunded to accomplish savings. The Agency is requesting the City's continued support of the project by providing its general obligation backing in support of bonds to fund $1,550,000 in building improvements and to refund the $2,960,000 of outstanding 2004 bonds. The Building Improvements Kass Wilson Architects have been retained on the project and indicate that the primary purpose of the project is to repair the existing waterproof plaza which has had leaking issues for many years. The proposed project includes a complete reconstruction of the plaza waterproofing system. The plaza will then be refinished with a new heated walkway and concrete topping. The project also includes site improvements to collect water from the plaza and shed it away from the building, which is critical to successfully deal with the direct plaza water issues and to stabilize a retaining wall that has been affected by the accumulation of water. A final element of the proposed project includes improvements to the building designed to reduce ongoing maintenance costs and to update certain elements, including (i) new windows, (ii) the replacement of the existing vinyl siding new cement fiberboard, (iii) refinishing and furnishing the existing decks, (iv) adding new aluminum railings, (iv) refinishing and restriping the asphalt parking lot, (v) adding new landscaping to disturbed areas, and (vi) improving the interior with new lighting in the main lobby and new trim on all of the windows. The Agency has a firm price for the project from a contractor and will contract for the project cost simultaneously with the issuance of the 2014 Bonds. The Bond Structure The 2004 bonds have a final maturity date of January 1, 2025. The proposed combined financing has been structured as a twenty -year bond to allow for the retirement of the new money portion. Because of federal rules related to bonds that are bank qualified, the Agency is limited in the amount of tax - exempt debt that can be issued. The legal limitation is that neither the average life of the bonds nor the amount of the tax - exempt portion can exceed the respective values for the bonds being refunded. Working within these constraints, a combined level debt service has been designed consisting of tax - exempt bonds up to the maximum possible and taxable bonds for the balance of the financing. Under current market conditions, the combined annual debt service will be less each year than the current debt service payments. The bonds will be payable primarily from revenues generated by the Project and an annual contribution from the Authority from its special benefits tax. The Agency is required to provide advance notice to the City of any projected shortfall; however, it should be noted that the project has been self - supporting since its inception and is anticipated to remain so. While the Agency expects that the revenues of the Project will meet the debt service requirements, the City's general obligation pledge will lower interest and related costs, and increase the marketability of the Bonds. City of Chanhassen Carver County CDA 2014 Bond Request Page 3 Special considerations The granting of its general obligation pledge is permitted under Minnesota Statutes Chapter 469.034. There are several statutory requirements that must be met, including: 1. Pledged revenues must be expected to exceed 1.1 Ox debt service in each year debt service is outstanding. The final structure of the 2014 Bonds is not finalized as of this writing, however, an illustrative schedule of debt service is attached and a table of the historical available revenues and their ability to cover the expected maximum annual debt service is immediately below. Funds Available for Debt Service Total Revenue Total Operating Expenses Net Operating Income /(Loss) plus Depreciation & Amorization plus CCCDA contribution Available for Debt Service Estimate maximum annual debt service Coverage factor (Sources: 2009 -2013 C4FRs) 2010 2011 2012 2013 $716,234. $723,999' $735,822! $754,794 $537,152!! $551,676 $568,2571! $550,519 $179,082 $172,323 $167,5651; $204,275 168,141 182,355 169,980', 167,086 31,0001 31,000` 31,000: 31,000 $378,223; $385,678 $368,545 $402,361 $334,7631 $334,763 $334,763 $334,763 1.13 1.15 1.10 1 1.20 2. The project being financed must be intended for seniors or families with incomes not greater than 80% of median family income. This project will continue to be a senior project. 3. The term of the bonds can't be more than 35 years. The term is proposed to be approximately twenty years. 4. The amount of similar bonds outstanding can't exceed the greater of $3,000,000 or 0.50% of the estimated market value ( "EMW) of the City. The Department of Revenue lists the City's EMV for the 2013 assessment year as $3.345 billion. 0.50% of that amount is over $16.7 million. The current estimated amount of this issue is $4,660,000. The debt does not count against the City's general debt limit under Minnesota statute. 5. Public hearings must be held by the City and by the Agency for the new money portion of the 2014 Bonds. As referenced earlier, the tax - exempt 2014 Bonds are being structured to comply with certain federal provisions that enable them to be bank qualified without interfering with bank qualification designations that the City or County has or will make in 2014. The balance of funding needed will be financed with taxable bonds and have no impact on bank qualification regardless of structure. It is possible to refund the Series 2014T Bonds with tax - exempt bonds at a later date. As a current refunding, no statutory savings test applies, however the refunding portion of the 2014 Bonds is projected to produce a present value savings of just over $200,000 which is 8.66% of the present value of the refunded debt service of the bonds being refunded. City of Chanhassen Carver County CDA 2014 Bond Request Page 4 What is requested of the City To accomplish the financing results as presented above, the Agency is asking that the City provide its general obligation backing for up to $5,000,000 in bonds. As mentioned, the current estimated amount of the 2014 Bonds is $4,660,000 and the $5,000,000 cap is requested to provide for flexibility to respond to any items unforeseen at this time. Both the final schedule and coverage information will be made available to the City staff and will comply in all respects with the essence of the description of the transaction provided in this memorandum. Under Minnesota statute, granting general obligation backing will require that a public hearing be conducted by the City and by the Agency and formal approval of the general obligation given. (The Agency's public hearing will be held on July 17.) A draft copy of the resolution the City will be asked to pass is enclosed with this memorandum. The Agency's finance team will work with City staff to coordinate completion of the financing. It is anticipated that the financing will occur in mid - August, with work on the project to proceed soon after. Representatives of the Agency, Springsted Incorporated and Ivy Properties will be available to respond to the Council's questions about the financing or the improvement project at its workshop on July 14th. cc: Julie Frick, Carver County Community Development Agency City of Chanhassen Carver County CDA 2014 Bond Request Page 5 $4,660,000 Carver County CDA, Minnesota Housing Development and Refunding Bonds, Series 2014 and Series 2014T Combined Refunding and New Money Project Summary Dated 08/26/20141 Delivered 08/26/2014 Principal Interest Total P¢I 01/01/2015 230,000 Taxable 279,177.96 Issue 190,000 TERefunding Refunding New Money Summary 139, 762.50 Series 2014 Series 2104T - I 195,000 Sources Of Funds 333,202.50 01/01/2019 195,000 136, 057.50 Par Amount of Bonds ............................ ............................... $2,270,000.00 $600,000.00 $1,790,000.00 $4,660,000.00 Transfers from Prior Issue DSR Funds . ............................... 173,610.00 - - 173,610.00 Total Sources ..................................... ............................... $2,443,610.00 $600,000.00 $1,790,000.00 $4,833,610.00 uses Of Funds 330,202.50 01/01/2024 220,000 114, 742.50 Primary Purpose Fund ........................... ............................... 2,414,899.38 - - 2,414,899.38 Deposit to Project Construction Fund .... ............................... - - 1,550,000.00 1,550,000.00 Deposit to Current Refunding Fund.. .................................... - 576,412.50 - 576,412.50 Deposit to Debt Service Reserve Fund (DSRF) ................... - - 164,730.00 164,730.00 Costs of Issuance ................................. ............................... - 20,000.00 50,000.00 70,000.00 Total Underwriter's Discount (1. 150%) ............................... 26,105.00 6;900.00 20,585.00 53,590.00 Rounding Amount .................................. ............................... 2,605.62 (3,312.50) 4,685.00 3,978.12 Total uses ........................................... ............................... $2,443,610.00 $600,000.00 $1,790,000.00 $4,833,610.00 COMBINED F f Date Principal Interest Total P¢I 01/01/2015 230,000 49,177.96 279,177.96 01/01/2016 190,000 140, 712.50 330, 712.50 01/0112017 195,000 139, 762.50 334, 762.50 01/01/2018 195,000 138,202.50 333,202.50 01/01/2019 195,000 136, 057.50 331, 057.50 01/01/2020 200,000 133, 230.00 333, 230.00 01/01/2021 205,000 129, 530.00 334, 530.00 01/0112022 205,000 125,122.50 330,122.50 01/01/2023 210,000 120,202.50 330,202.50 01/01/2024 220,000 114, 742.50 334,742-50 01/01/2025 225,000 108,692.50 333,692.50 01/01/2026 225,000 102,167.50 327,167.50 01/01/2027 235,000 93,617.50 328,617.50 01/0112028 245,000 84,452.50 329,452.50 01/01/2029 250,000 74, 652.50 324, 652.50 01/01/2030 265,000 64,402.50 329,402.50 01/01/2031 275,000 53,140.00 328,140.00 01/01/2032 285,000 41, 040.00 326, 040.00 01/01/2033 300,000 28,215.00 328,215.00 01/01/2034 310,000 14,415.00 324, 415.00 Total 4,660,000 $1,891,535.46 $6,551,535.46 CITY OF CHANHASSEN, MINNESOTA Resolution No. Approving the issuance by the Carver County Community Development Agency of bonds in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $5,000,000 to refinance and improve a qualified housing development project and the pledge of the full faith and credit of the City of Chanhassen thereto, and authorizing the execution and delivery of related documents.

Accordingly, the Agency anticipates that the Refunding Bonds will be deemed designated as qualified tax exempt bonds and will not count against the City's annual $10,000,000 limit of qualified tax exempt bonds.
